Thinking by Walter D. Wintle 


If you think you are beaten, you are;
If you think you dare not, you don't.
If you like to win, but think you can't,
It's almost a cinch you won't. 

If you think you'll lose, you're lost;
For out in the world we find,
Success begins with a fellow's will;
It's all in the state of mind.

Full many a race is lost
E'er even a step is run
And many a coward fails 
E'er even the work is begun. 

Think big and your deeds will grow.
Think small and you'll fall behind, 
Think that you can and you will,
It's all in the state of mind. 

If you think you're outclassed, you are;
You've got to think high to rise. 
You've got to be sure of yourself
Before you can win the prize. 

Life's battles don't always go
To the stronger or faster man;
But sooner or later, the man who wins 
Is the man who thinks he can. 

by Walter D. Wintle

This was one of my father's favorite poems, It hung in a frame on the wall in the home I grew up in. Over the years, I memorized it and it became my go-to mantra, driving me toward success on many occasions. When I read the words, I hear my father's voice. 

The two middle stanzas are left out whenever you see this poem digitally or in print. I'm not sure why and I cannot even find these two stanzas referenced or listed anywhere online. But they were in that framed copy, so I have included them here. 

Thanks, Walter for your words of encouragement.

S1 E21 Poetry: "Thinking"  It's All In The State Of Mind

Best Selling Author, Media Personality, and Speaker Laura Gassner Otting joins Rayanne for a discussion about Big Ideas, AI, and what's next for her.

Laura’s secret superpower is seeing your greatness and reflecting it back on you, so that you can get “unstuck” — and achieve extraordinary results.

A frequent contributor to Good Morning America, the TODAY Show, Harvard Business Review, and Oprah Daily, Laura is the Wall Street Journal Bestselling Author of three books, Wonderhell, Limitless, and Mission-Driven. Laura’s 30-year resume is defined by her entrepreneurial edge. She served as a Presidential Appointee in Bill Clinton’s White House, helping shape AmeriCorps; left a leadership role at respected national search firm to expand a tech start-up; and founded, ran, and sold her own global search firm, partnering with the full gamut of mission driven corporate and nonprofit executives.

Laura is turned on by the audacity of The Big Idea and that larger-than-life goal you just can’t seem to shake. She’s an instigator, motivator, and provocateur, and she’s never met a revolution she didn’t like. Just ask her enduringly patient husband, two almost-grown sons, and two troublesome pups with whom she lives outside of Boston, MA.
